The statewide agency for local 2-1-1 information and referral providers throughout California needed help with a range of writing and communications services, including website content management and email newsletter writing, design and distribution.

The Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) Association’s Los Angeles Chapter hired me to produce their quarterly 16-24 page print magazine, and requested a ground-up redesign of their website in order to make the content more timely, relevant, and visually captivating.

One of the nation’s leading performance arts institutions with five school divisions contracted me to completely overhaul to their website. I edited text, added photographs, and reformatted all 635 pages of their website, and also produced a comprehensive Website Style Manual to ensure ongoing design and formatting consistency.

I designed and built a blogger’s website from scratch, including a blog-to-email system, social media integration, subscription list management, contact forms, and lots of other features and functions.

A nonprofit economic development organization asked me to edit and layout their weekly email newsletter, and to work with an outside web design company to reconstruct Larta Institute’s website, and then write, edit, layout, and manage the website’s content.

The French restaurant needed assistance with writing and editing, public relations, marketing consulting, website content, and social media, as well asking me to write, edit, layout and manage the contact list and distribution for their monthly newsletter.

James helped me create the website for the start-up of our new business last year. He did a great job and was easy to work with, very responsive and prompt, and his fees were more than reasonable. Thank you, James, for a great job!
